IDH1
  
  • All IHC stains will include a positive control tissue
  
  • This antibody can detect individual infiltrating glioma cells which have this mutation, within the background of normal brain, reactive astrogliosis, treatment effects, etc.
  • Given the superb specificity of melting curve analysis and DNA sequencing, these molecular tests are preferred when sufficient viable-appearing neoplasm is available. However, molecular study is limited by neoplastic DNA quantity, which can be greatly diluted by background brain tissue, reactive astrogliosis, inflammation, etc. Hence, immunohistochemistry for the R132H mutation is most appropriate in very scant or dilute samples, where individual infiltrating glioma cells may be visualized. A positive stain provides direct evidence of both neoplasia and of infiltration
  • In some cases, nonspecific background staining or regional heterogeneity of IDH1-R132H protein expression has been reported (see reference 7 below, for example) and may necessitate confirmatory genetic analysis.
  
  • Unlabeled/mislabeled block
  • Insufficient tissue
  • Slides broken beyond repair

Specifications

  • Antibody that recognizes the most common mutant of IDH1 R132H-a change in codon 132 of the IDH1 gene that replaces arginine with histidine, causing a sufficient conformational shift within the protein to be detected by immunohistochemistry
  • Approximately 70% of infiltrating grade II and grade III gliomas contain this particular mutation
  • Other IDH1 and IDH2 mutations are NOT detected by the antibody

Staining pattern

  • Cytoplasmic staining
